[R] RExcel, ROOo and LibreOffice inquiry

[Liviu Andronic]

Dear all
I'd like to give RExcel a decent spin, mainly to take advantage of
Excel's data management facilities and automatic recalculations.
However I cannot use this Windows-only solution on the platform of my
choice, Linux.

Alternatively I've been considering the cross-platform ROOo, the
OpenOffice equivalent of RExcel, but in this case the problem is that
the only release available is a beta version from 2009. I wouldn't
want to use that for any serious work, nor I am sure that it works
with LibreOffice (as OpenOffice is deprecated).

Thus is anyone aware of a cross-platform Gnumeric or LibreOffice
solution that emulates what RExcel does for Excel on Windows?

Regards
Liviu
